About PAEQX

The Putnam Retirement Advantage 2050 Fund Class R is a target-date mutual fund designed primarily for individuals planning to retire around the year 2050. Its portfolio allocation is dynamically adjusted over time, with an initial focus on capital appreciation through a higher exposure to growth-oriented assets. As the target retirement date approaches, the fund gradually shifts toward a more conservative allocation, placing greater emphasis on income-generating investments and capital preservation. This glide path is intended to balance growth potential in earlier years with risk reduction as retirement nears. The fund achieves diversification by investing in a variety of underlying Putnam mutual funds across multiple asset classes, including equities and fixed income. Its structure is well-suited for retirement planning strategies, offering a hands-off approach for long-term investors seeking both growth and eventual income as they transition into retirement.
